Why have all add-ons been disabled today?
All of my add-ons just disappeared. I have 5 exams for Medical school. I just want to reinstall certain add-ons until I get past these exams. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Robert

Mozilla has rolled-out a fix for this. The fix will be automatically applied in the background within the next few hours, you don’t need to take active steps.
In order to be able to provide this fix on short notice, they are using the Studies system. You can check if you have studies enabled
- Go to [=] > Options > Privacy & Security.
- Make sure Allow Firefox to install and run studies is check marked.
I you had it disabled, you can disable studies again after your add-ons have been re-enabled.
They are working on a general fix that doesn't need to rely on this and will keep you updated.
Thanks but this should not have happened without informing consumers. I see it is working again yet I have already looked at Vivaldi, Opera and another. I will be prepared when Mozilla decides to roll out changes without any notices again. I have 5 final exams due within the next 6 days. I did not need this hassle.
All the best to you & yours.

There was a Bug-A-Boo with a Certificate Expiration Date dealing with the Add-ons. There's a new FF Version with the main Fix, 66.0.4.
Mozilla Blog Post Update:
A Firefox release has been pushed — version 66.0.4 on Desktop and Android, and version 60.6.2 for ESR. This release repairs the certificate chain to re-enable web extensions, themes, search engines, and language packs that had been disabled (Bug 1549061).
There are remaining issues that we are actively working to resolve, but we wanted to get this fix out before Monday to lessen the impact of disabled add-ons before the start of the week. More information about the remaining issues can be found by clicking on the links to the release notes above.

This was an error. A mishap. So, nothing to 'announce' until the hassle hit everyone.
Please mark one of the posts here that best answers as being 'Solved'.
